What a bonkers experience. What started as a joke years ago in our live shows became a real life 25-hr charity challenge that was stupid, monotonous, musical, and packed with celebs. Just like us. Thanks to everyone who supported, donated and the guests who kept our spirits up!

Devastated to learn of Sean Lock’s death. We loved him-he was hilariously funny on and off screen, but also a lovely bloke… xxx instagram.com/p/CStn2B-MV8h/…

We had a great first gig back last night at @windsoretonbrew brewery. For some reason @AlexHorne kept swearing but we managed to bleep them all out using our wind instruments. What a relief.
